For a female teacher, I received a sizable haul on Valentine’s Day. I wasn’t expecting anything, but my students kept surprising me. I actually received some looks of jealousy from expectant male teachers who saw my cautiously tucking away the small boxes tied with ribbons and heart shaped stickers. I got another one today from Mami-chan (one of my 1-6 Volleyball girls), and tomorrow her teammate, Nami-chan, will try to remember to bring me her gift (She’s on crutches at the moment, so I wasn’t overly fussed).
I love my 1-6 sports class! It’s like having 42 younger brothers and sisters who make me feel like I am not a 25 year old fuddy-duddy. I truly feel young around them, but just old enough to be protective of them. As long as I am at Yazu, I am not letting the other ALTs teach them. They are my kids.
